GUI

Name Description
GUI SSL Certificate The system uses a self-signed certificate to enable encrypted web interface connections. To change the default certificate, select a different certificate that was created or imported in the Certificates menu.
Web Interface IPv4 Address Choose a recent IP address to limit the usage when accessing the administrative GUI. The built-in HTTP server binds to the wildcard address of 0.0.0.0 (any address) and issues an alert if the specified address becomes unavailable.
Web Interface IPv6 Address Choose a recent IPv6 address to limit the usage when accessing the administrative GUI. The built-in HTTP server binds to the wildcard address of 0.0.0.0 (any address) and issues an alert if the specified address becomes unavailable.
Web Interface HTTP Port Allow configuring a non-standard port to access the GUI over HTTP. Changing this setting might require changing a Firefox configuration setting.
Web Interface HTTPS Port Allow configuring a non-standard port to access the GUI over HTTPS.
HTTPS Protocols Cryptographic protocols for securing client/server connections. Select which Transport Layer Security (TLS) versions FreeCORE can use for connection security.
Web Interface HTTP -> HTTPS Redirect Redirect HTTP connections to HTTPS. A GUI SSL Certificate is required for HTTPS. Activating this also sets the HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) maximum age to 31536000 seconds (one year). This means that after a browser connects to the web interface for the first time, the browser continues to use HTTPS and renews this setting every year.
